Santander signed a five-year, $92 million contract with Toronto prior to last season and injuries, so far, have derailed his Blue Jays' tenure. Last season, the slugger slashed just .194/.271/.294 with six home runs in 221 plate appearances in his first season with Toronto. Santander belted a career-high 44 home runs and drove in 102 runs in his last season with Baltimore in 2024, prompting Toronto to sign him that offseason. The organization is optimistic that Santander can return sometime before the end of the season.
Blue Jays manager John Schneider said Anthony Santander’s shoulder and back injuries have improved.

“Shoulder is good. Back is good. He finally feels normal, so that’s a good thing," Schneider said. Santander looks likely to be fully healthy heading into spring training. He dealt with injuries all of this past season after signing a five-year, $92.5 million deal last offseason with Toronto. He would add even more power in the middle of the Blue Jays lineup if he can stay healthy.
